HelpGuide.org is a Southern California-based non-profit focused on mental, emotional, and social health. Back in 2012, they published a webpage on “Caregiver Stress and Burnout,” which was recently updated.
The webpage, part of their articles about stress, offers this advice:
“Don’t let caregiving take over your whole life. It’s easier to accept a difficult situation when there are other areas of your life that are rewarding. Invest in things that give you meaning and purpose—whether it’s your family, church, a favorite hobby, or your career.”
